Small detour into MAINE.EXE because it has all the juicy algorithms that will
explain the remaining unknown members of the highscore data structure, and
there's this one code segment here we need to get out of the way first.
The same function appears unused in TH02's MAINE.EXE. Separate commit because
this was painful enough and we can link the C version into FUUIN.EXE right
now.
I've looked at every openly available piece of PC-98 documentation, and there
don't seem to be any official names for the individual planes. The closest
thing I could find was the description at
http://island.geocities.jp/cklouch/column/pc98bas/pc98disphw2.htm
explaining that they represent the blue, red, green, and brightness component
when using the default PC-98 palette. However, these planes correspond to
nothing else but the 4 individual bits of the final index into the color
palette, and you can assign any color to every single palette slot. Therefore,
it's merely a convention that your own palettes don't have to follow (and in
Touhou, they don't).
Nevertheless, there doesn't seem to be an alternative, and the Neko Project II
source code uses the same B/R/G/E convention, so I'll go with that as well.
